OFFICE OF THE GAZETTE,
FORT WORTH. TEX. April 9, 1887,
Retailers did very heavy business to-
day, while the volume of merchandise
moved by whole salers was large.
Prices were unchanged except for fry
ing chickens, which brought as much as
S.. so per dozen, but IS was the market
price.
Country butter is in very great demand
and is only cents below creamery in
price.
COFFEE.
Coffee has had an unusual share of
attention here and abroad throughout the
week, and on and off the option list
the dealings in Brazil products were
very liberal in amount, and much
higher though variable priCes-fair
invoices of Rio having been
carried on Monday up to l54C., with No.
4, afoat, up to 14.95@l5c No. to HE,
and the March option to 1900, April to
to 1860, and May to l3 Csc. on q very
excited market (the figures quoted haV-
ing been extreme, even on the very bull
ish current crop speCulatiOD), partly as
refe citing the influence of the eXtraor-
binary speculative activity and buoyancy
cabled from Havre. Very free covering
purchases were made here.
SPICES, FRUITS AND RICE
Were without notable activity or impor-
tant alteration in values here. Pepper
was cabled frcm Europe rs somewhat
stronger. JObbing requirements in the
fruit line seemed on the inCre Sc, tending
to stiffen the views of holder> Of disirable
goods. Currants, raisins and prunes
fwere in post favor, though frs and dates
were sanght after. Rice had a fair sale
on-~a firm basis as to prizes. Pacific
coast orders were, for the season, very
liberal.
TEAS.
Private trading was within narrow lin
its and indicative of little further change,
the principal holders confidently awaiting
the revival of demand with toe advance
into the spring months. At auction, on
Wednesday, 9.573 half chests, AID Oh
Thursday 1874 haif chests yer marketed,
and generally IN the more desirable Dor
ton of the offerings at fair prices.-T Brad
